Shively (formerly Shiveley, Bluff Prairie, and Paradise) is an unincorporated community in Humboldt County, California, United States. It is located north-northwest of Redcrest, at an elevation of 144 feet (44 m), on the right bank of the Eel River.
A post office operated at Shively from 1906 to 1965.
Like neighboring Pepperwood, Shively was once a center for farm produce including corn, cucumbers, and tomatoes. Also in common with Pepperwood, it was mostly destroyed in the Christmas flood of 1964. A few farms and residences remain today.
